the the appeals court to ruling they said quote the presidential immunity does not bar the enforcement of a state grand jury subpoena directly a 3rd party what that essentially means is is that they were rejecting trump's lawyers who made the argument that he was a mutant from criminal investigation as president so then didn't have to turn over any sort of tax returns his pals said absolutely not he is if he is even immune which that is up for debate he still would have to turn over these tax returns so a big setback for trump and a big victory for the district attorney of new york who has been pushing for these tax returns as part of a wider investigation to see if trump has done any wrongdoing in the payments as you mentioned to 2 people before the last election so when do we get to see his tax returns. well the ruling states that they have 10 days to turn
8:08 pm
them over however there's a big caviar and is a very big caviar and that's if trump does not appeal and they've already said that they will appeal trump has said all along he will fight this until the very end so do not expect to see trump's tax returns in a time soon trump has said that he will take this all the way to the supreme court so we're looking at weeks perhaps even months if it goes that far in till we get a ruling on gabriel live in new york many thanks in new delhi the air has become so toxic that a public health emergency has been declared the government is distributing mosques to millions of people to help them cope with the small guy and his limousine the number of cars allowed on the road and reports now from india's capital. to new delhi anything above 400 on the city's index is considered very severe
